Operation Upshot-Knothole, Nevada Proving Grounds, March-June 1953. Report to the Test Director. Project 17.4. Neutron-Energy Distribution. (Sanitized Version)

摘要

The purpose of this experiment was to obtain the absolute neutron-energy distribution. An estimate of neutron attenuation in air. Two stations were used, one at 140 yd, the other at 280 yd. An estimate of the kiloton yield of the weapon from the number of fission neutrons detected.
